Malena - Guest House - Split

After a phone call on our arrival in Split, Malena met us at the main bus station. We were led through the old town's winding streets.. Our spotless room was on the third floor, recently redone with a beautiful view of the bell tower. We decided to leave our suitcases in the first floor storage area due to the stairs leading to our room. A key was provided […] to the storage area. Malena gave us information about Split at check-in and was near-by to help in anyway during our stay, The Malena Guest House has other rooms available and is near the main bus station and ferry line. A perfect location for our stay. Read more

Great location n hotel

A little tricky to find, but a lovely, clean, well-looked after room (with A/C!), and very convenient to all the places worth seeing in the main part of Split. Quality of service was great.

This guesthouse is in the Diocletian palace - on a lovely narrow street - but of course it means there's no car parking outside. You can park by the sea (very close) if you pay, or Malena will direct you about which safe roads to park on for free. Probably worth noting Malena is on 3rd floor and there is no lift, so perhaps not suitable for elderly/disabled. […] We found #3 Adamova easily, but were confused about where to go because there were no signs for Malena - but we asked some people and they showed us. This is more like a family home than a hotel - has a lovely tiny roof terrace upstairs. Our room was very modern, clean and very comfy beds (memory foam mattresses). Shower was excellent and room had good air con, fridge and shutters. Malena herself is the best selling point about this place as she's very helpful and friendly and makes you feel welcome. Great value. Read more

The Malena is in a fantastic location with nearby views of Mostar bridge. The apartments owners could not have done more to be helpful. The rooms are a little small - especially with 3 of us as we had but they do have a small shared kitchen which was useful for breakfast making in the morning. Mostar itself is a deeply moving place.

Sijainti oli mainio ja omistaja hyvin ystävällinen. Huone oli siisti mutta taso vaatimaton - kaksi tähteä on oikea luokitus. Huoneistomme (perhehuone) sijaitsi yksinään eri rakennuksessa kuin muut huoneet, joten olimme kaikessa rauhassa. Langatonta verkkoa ei löytynyt missään vaiheessa.

It was super great. Right in the city center. Clean and new room.

Trevligt bemötande och servicevänligt! Nära till stadens frukostbuffér! Kontant betalning vid anländande.

Durchaus angenehm - . Wichtig: Frau Malena anrufen, wenn man in Split ist, denn es ist kein Hotel, wo immer jemand an der Reception ist, - Und das Haus hat keinen Lift, das sollte man berúcksichtigen, wenn man das Gep§ck alles mit ind Zimmer hochnehmen will.

The 29th of September my husband and I came to Split. I booked Malena - Guest House via internet. We had no problem to find the address which is within the walls of Diocletian's palace and only 100 meter from the cathedral. We enter an old house and climbed 57 stairs. The staircase was rather shabby so I was a bit anxious. Then we reached the 3-rd floor […] and rung the bell. Our host opened the door and we saw modern, light and new renovated hall. Malena welcomed us with wine (really excellent) and fresh local fruit. She is a very nice, warm woman and speaks very good English. Our room have been also recently remodelled and was nice and quiet, thanks to new window. Very important is that there was very efficient air condition in the room; otherwise it would be difficult to sleep because of the high temperature. The bathroom was clean and modern. There was also a little shared terrace where we sat and enjoyed our wine. There is no lift, but for someone like me working every day in the office, the staircase was an excellent training. We really liked our stay. We met Malena every day. She was very helpful and her husband drove us to the airport. On the whole: Malena - Guest House have very good location, standard and reasonable price. We hope to see Malena again. Read more

Located inside the precincts of Diocletians Palace, these rooms could hardly be better situated for sightseeing in the old city. In an ancient building, you have to accept a certain "patina" of age. Don´t let the rather dingy alley and entrace put you off - the rooms themselves are spotlessly clean and well-appointed with efficient air conditioning. […] One improvement I would recommend is some proper signs both on the alley and on the entrance to the stairs. It is simply not possible to know you are in the right place unless Malene is by coincidence out looking for you- or you call her by mobile (not always practicle on foreign SIMs) Read more

Mitt i gamla stan i Split, medeltida byggnader, trånga gränder, restaruranger och butiker. Rent och fräscht rum, bra ac, tyst och lugnt på rummet. Men nästan omöjligt att hitta dit, dålig karta, ingen skyltning på hotellet.

Fra gjestehuset midt i det gamle palasset i Split hadde vi kort vei til alt i byen og et sentralt utgangspunkt for turer, utflukter og strandliv. Svært hyggelige og serviceinnstilte eiere og ansatte. Rent rom og gode senger.

Host is kind but no WIFI and no access to terrace. You can get more value for the money in other apartments in Split. Not very suited for families with children.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The guesthouse is a bit hard to find, since the access is located in a small alley next to restaurant Poseidon. Once you find it, it is however clean, nice and quiet - eventhough it is in the absolute center of the old town. The owner is so friendly and helpful and the rooms have lots of space. I would definitely stay here again if I come back. (Be […] aware that you have to pay by cash.) Read more

Also excellent location (if you don't find the access to the guest house, just ask directions from the Jupiter/San Giovanni waiters outside).. Laundry service was excellent!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very good overall. It is inside Diocletianus'palace, so it is extremely central. So central that you cannot get very close to it with a car and it may also be a bit tricky to find. There are no signs, so you have to ask around in the narrow alleys about the location. The host, Malena, is very friendly and provided us with all the necessary information […] as to go shooping, swimming and sight-seing. Very useful for us, since we never got a guide book. After we paid for the room on the second day we also received a bottle of local wine (she did not accept credit card, so we had to arrange cash before paying). The rooms are newly renovated and come with both a very powerful A/C and a small refridgerator. In fact the air conditioning is so powerful we had to turn it up to about 25 degrees Celscius to avoid freezing. Bathrrom is very up to date. Only drawback was the mixer in the shower, it was very impossible to regulate the temperature in the lower temperature region. There is also access to a small roof terrace that offers relaxation and good views of the palace. Read more

Vi syntes det var veldig vanskelig å finne fram til Malena Guest House, som ligger inne i Diokletians palass. Det er mange smale veier der og dårlig merking. Da vi spurte oss fram, ble hele nabolaget satt i sving for å ringe til eieren, som kom og henta oss. Hun var en veldig hyggelig og entusiastisk dame, som prata i vei på et vanskelig tilgjengelig […] engelsk. Hun ga oss masse informasjon om byen og en guida tur i Diokletians palass. Hotellet selv var litt vanskelig å finne ut av. Det skal visstnok være en terasse der + et spiserom med muligheter for frokost, men vi ble innlosjert på toppen av ei lang, mørk trapp (trapperommet trengte sårt oppussing, men det skulle det ifølge dama få) uten noen fellesarealer i sikte. Leiligheta var lys og ren, med ett soverom og ett oppholdsrom med dobbeltseng og kjøkkenkrok med kjøleskap, men fordi det ene soverommet var veldig varmt, endte vi med å dra madrassene ut i det rommet som hadde aircondition. Alt i alt var det et het greit alternativ hvis man ønsker å bo senralt i Split. Det var flere fine restauranter i nærheten. Read more

Vanskelig å finne Malena. Ikke skiltet og dårlig belyst inngangsdør i bakegården sammen med den lokale resturantens kjøkkenutgang. Malena ligger i 4. etasje (uten heis). Utrolig hyggelig betjening, rent og velholdt. Kan absolutt anbefales.

Great guest house in the center of the old town! The rooms were clean and had a high standard, with great pillows. Malena gave great recomendations on what to see, things to da and places to eat. There was always fresh fruit and clean towels and linnen, and we can´t imagine a better hostess! We highly recomend Malena Guest House!
